Abstract
The Spanish dehesa is a traditional, but also up-to-date, Mediterranean agrosilvopastoral system. It might be regarded as one of the most successful and efficient examples of how extensive agrosilvopastoral management is not only compatible with nature conservation and sustainable rural development within its environment, but also necessary for the achievement of both goals. Its area, of about 4 million hectares, is marked by two fundamental features: Mediterranean climate and low soil fertility.
The character, role, management and yield of its major components (tree layer, sward, crops, livestock and wildlife) are described. The current management of the Spanish dehesas is strongly influenced by the Common Agricultural Policy, showing a certain dissociation between the natural environment and its productivity, on the one hand, and agrosilvopastoral treatments, on the other. The main problem affecting the dehesa is the lack or shortage of regeneration of the tree layer.
